 http://www.expatica.com is probably the site UncaMark had in mind.

And I should have known the Dutch episodes taped in Hilversum.  I'm a shortwave radio listener, and know fully well that's where Radio Nederlands broadcast from....

That would be it.

Last year at this time, I was doing searching through Dutch broadcasting web sites to find out about their version of \"Lingo\"--and about the unique public broadcasting system in that country, on which one of the television stations \"Lingo\" airs there.  To try to summarize, the air time amongst the five national radio stations and the four national television channels (which are the only national *broadcast* channels, although well over 90 percent of the Dutch have cable) is divided amongst a series of not-for-profit private organizations representing a broad swath of mainstream religious and political views (and the more offbeat political and religious views get an hour or two of air time a week).  \"Lingo\" is produced by IDTV for the non-partisan, non-religious TROS (which calls itself what's roughly translated in English as \"the family entertainer\") on the mass appeal channel Nederland 2.  A separate not-for-profit organization, NOS, produces news, sports and special events programs for all of the channels and runs the huge studio center in Hilversum for all of the organizations (although \"Lingo\" taped in Hilversum at a smaller private studio).  There are commercials between programs, but the programs themselves run uninterrupted.

It's actually a little more complicated than that, but you get the idea.

The vertivision blocks seems to be happening before a major schedule change. The vertivision blocks from last summer were right before they put  different shows/times in the evenings.
